Analysis of the transport process providing spin injection through an Fe/AlGaAs Schottky barrier
(2003)Electrical injection through a reverse biased Fe/AlGaAs Schottky contact was used to obtain electron-spin polarizations in a GaAs quantum well. The analysis of the transport data using the Rowell criteria shows that ...

Coherence in electron transfer pathways
(2011)Central to the view of electron-transfer reactions is the idea that nuclear motion generates a transition state geometry at which the electron/hole amplitude propagates coherently from the electron donor to the electron ...

Effects of initial state preparation on the distance dependence of electron transfer through molecular bridges and wires
(2003)The dependence of electron transfer rates and yields in bridged molecular systems on the bridge length was discussed. The dependence of the zero-bias conduction of molecular wires on wire length were also discussed. Both ...

Efficient spin detection across the hybrid Co/GaAs schottky interface
(2007)The electron spin detection efficiency was studied across Co/GaAs structures using photoexcitation techniques. Two sets of samples were prepared where the substrate surface was pretreated by annealing prior to growth for ...

Electron transfer contact maps
(1997)An exact approach is introduced to establish and compare quantitative structure-function relationships in electron transfer proteins. The strategy is based on the idea of an electron transfer contact map and is motivated ...

Electron transfer through fluctuating bridges: On the validity of the superexchange mechanism and time-dependent tunneling matrix elements
(2001)An attempt is made to find the most general description of the superexchange mechanism that is valid for time-dependent donor-bridge-acceptor systems. Time-dependent electron-transfer probabilities that involve single MD ...

Electronic structure of piezoelectric double-barrier InAs/InP/InAs/InP/InAs (111) nanowires
(2004)The numerical self-consistent solution of the Poisson-Schrodinger equations in cylindrical coordinates for calculating electronic states in the effective mass approximation was implemented. High accuracy and rapid convergence ...

Floquet analysis for vibronically modulated electron tunneling
(2011)Electron tunneling provides the primary reaction channel for electron transfer (ET) in many molecular systems. The analysis of such systems therefore requires the consideration of electronic coherence and interference ...

Article
Inelastic electron tunneling erases coupling-pathway interferences
(2004)Theoretical analysis of nonadiabatic electron-transfer reactions in molecules usually assumes that electron amplitude propagates coherently from the reductant to the oxidant via covalent and noncovalent coupling pathways. ...

Initial/final state selection of the spin polarization in electron tunneling across an epitaxial FeGaAs (001) interface
(2007)Spin dependent electron transport across epitaxial FeGaAs (001) interfaces has been investigated using photoexcitation techniques. Spin filtering is observed in the forward bias regime and its sign is switched by using ...

Investigation of spin-polarized resonant tunneling through double-barrier magnetic tunnel junctions by self-consistent solution of the Poisson-Schrödinger equations
(2003)The article discusses the investigation of spin-polarized resonant tunneling through double barrier magnetic tunnel junctions (DBMTJ) by the self-consistent solution of Poissons and Schrödingers equations using transfer ...

Persistence of structure over fluctuations in biological electron-transfer reactions
(2008)In the soft-wet environment of biomolecular electron transfer, it is possible that structural fluctuations could wash out medium-specific electronic effects on electron tunneling rates. We show that beyond a transition ...

Tunneling in Pb-YBCO junctions: Determining the symmetry of the pairing state
(1995)We report on our efforts to understand the origin of supercurrent observed in c-axis tunnel junctions on YBCO [Sun A. G. et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 72, 2267 (1994).] by studying the phase coherence of a-axis/c-axis and ...
